since there would be the need two actresses two act as one Em as Em and then Em when she's Nikki

.

Lulu: Easy Paris Hilton, okay kidding. Although, Paris would fit in looks wise, I like Lulu and wouldn't want that bad of an actress to play her (see Paris's other films). Although, I sometimes find her annoying I think Hillary Duff might make a good Lulu (she has the look, see Material Girls, yet she has the sweetness that's needed for Lulu).

Em: Amber Tamblyn (the look seems right, especially when she plays Tibby in the Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants movie (minus the blue streaks in the hair).

Niki: I like the girl who's on the American cover, yet I don't know if she can act so maybe Blake Lively(?) she's tall enough, pretty enough, and blonde enough.

Chistopher: I would say Chad Michael Murray, but he's too old and too obvious look wise. The other guy I would suggest is Jacob Young (with long hair, yet once again way too old, so I don't know).

Gabriel Luna: That hot chef guy/ Anne Hathaway's boy friend in The Devil Wears Prada, Adrian Grenier (Meg didn't state his age, so I think he would be okay

Brandon Stark: Chace Crawford, even though he's my ideal Paul Slater I think he would also be a good Brandon, I mean look at his character on Gossip Girl.

Em's parents: Robin Williams (think Flubber, absent minded professor type guy) and Jamie Lee Curtis (I have a professor who sort of looked like her, who I pictured to be Em's mom so...)

Frida: This one's difficult, does Amber Tambyln have a younger sister, if so then she can play her or Lacey Chabert (even though she's probably way too old to play Frida now, so I'd probably have to say an unknown).

Whitney: Sara Paxton, she played a pretty good mean girl in Sydney White (although, she might make a better Nikki lookwise). Lindsay Lohan would also be a good choice too, I guess, even though she's another young celebutante I can't stand. I mean, Mean Girl is her token role she could really sink her teeth in this part and it would give her career the boost it despeartly needs (although, I can't see Lindsay playing a supporting role, but this would be a good supporting role).

FYI, Lulu is biracial. Sorry if that wasn't clear in the book. I thought it was, with her cafe au lait skin (her blonde hair is bleached). I leave it up to you readers to imagine which races (I always like to let readers decide for themselves). But Paris would be totally inappropriate. No white girls allowed to play Lulu--although I suppose half-white actresses who could play her. But really, she could be any race...just not white.

Sorry about the confussion Meg , I probably skipped that part since I stayed up all night finishing this book, oh well. However,now that you stated she's biracial that opens up a lot of other possibilites who could play her.

Izzie, you most definetly need to still read this book (I hope you don't regret reading the spoiler, because when you find out what happens it really shocks you, in my case I dropped the book because I was so surprised).

I think Lulu could be played by Carrie Moten. I can't find her picture right now, she isn't really famous she is just a radio show co-host but is biracial (like me) and has blondish hair.All of the other characters are unclear for me.

I like the idea of Amber Tamblyn/Blake Lively playing Em/Nikki. Fun too, since they're 'Traveling Pants' costars. :-P And kudos for the Sara Paxton as Whitney proposal.

Hmm. Ooh - what about Ellen Page as Em?

Slightly off-topic - I see a few similarities between Nikki/Lulu and Paris Hilton/Nicole Richie (from a few years back). Also, Brandon Davis and Brandon Stark are both corporation heirs (plus they have the same first name). Granted, I'm only a few chapters in at the moment. But I just wanted to throw that out there. Hope it's not somehow insulting, or anything like that.

P.S. Awesome book so far! I was so happy to have a new Meg book delivered yesterday - I couldn't wait another week until my local bookstore had it!

P.P.S. And yes, while I'm not an adoring fan of this celebu-crowd, I definitely appreciate a good trash mag. :-)

I think Emma Watson and Hunter Parrish are the best Christophers and Nikkis.
I was speechless when I first saw that.
They look exactly like that in my head, except Nikki was a little more blond, and taller.

For Nikki Howard: I agree Blake Lively would be a fabulous Nikki. And she can definitely act! However, I do like Em. C (I think that was the name of the girl on the cover) as well! But Blake I know would do a great job as Nikki!

As for Brandon Stark: I think Chace Crawford would do pretty well...what do you think? He might just need to shorten his hair a bit for the movie though.

Justin Bay: I'm not sure what he looked like, but I think Zac Efron would play this role well

Christopher Maloney: I think William Moseley would play a good Christopher. He's got incredible looks, but they don't stand out as much.....I think it's the perfect fit

Whitney Robertson: I think that Rachel McAdams would be great for this role! She's played a similar role in Mean Girls and she did an amazing job. Her acting is also top notch!

Lindsey Jacobs: Well Lacey Shabert played one of the sidekicks to Rachel McAdams in Mean Girls and I think they made a fabulous team!

i can't figure out how to get a picture on here but here is a link of the guy i'd choose as Gabrilel, he'd be absoulutly perfect because 1. he's hot, 2. he's europain 3. he's hot lolhttp://images.google...htt...l=en&sa=N

A lot of these actors would be perfect as the characters in Airhead. I think Emma Watson would be a perfect Nikki, and I think Vanessa Hudgens might (might being the key word) be a good Lulu. She certainly looks the part; I'm just still kind of unsure about the versatility of her acting ability.

I like the idea of Amber Tamblyn/Blake Lively playing Em/Nikki. Fun too, since they're 'Traveling Pants' costars. :-P And kudos for the Sara Paxton as Whitney proposal.

I noticed that, too! I thought it was cool to have the similarities between the celebrities and the characters in the book.

Tough. I'm not really sure. Well, for Em in her original body, I think it might be Kristen Stewart. And I kinda agree that Taylor Swift might make a good Nikki. I mean, she has the looks and the voice. But not sure if she acts . . . For Lulu, I think Lindsay Lohan would be a good choice. That's all I think for now.

Nikki: Blake Lively or Taylor Swift (maybe) - well when I read the book, I think of Paris Hilton, with the "mean" thing, and tall, and airhead, and like to kiss, etc (no offence for Paris' fans out there), but I dunno she can act good enough to be Nikki when Em becomes Nikki or not.

Lulu: I always think Lulu as Nicole Richie (as she is also with Paris in Simple Life) with the 1.5 feet remarks and petite and the skin and all that (but I don't know if Nicole can act or not)

I got two free books in the mail: Airhead and Queen of Babble Gets Hitched. Plus a candy bracelet, rubber bracelet, and bookmarks. It just made my day. I was reluctant to read airhead but now that i have a copy I am sure I will be a fan.

OK I usually don't post in these threads because I never know who would play a perfect character in the movies but I have to say that for Chris, I think Chris Lowell would be perfect. (He's in the third season of Veronica Mars and on Private Practice as well)

I think for Emerson I would pick Alexis Bledel, Kristen Stewart or America Ferrara.
For Nikki I think I would pick Blake Lively or Emma Watson.
For Frida I would pick Emma Roberts or Dakota Fanning.
And for the guys I have no idea.
Actually I do have one: they MUST be hot.

Yeah, I definitely think Blake Lively would make the best Nikki, but Taylor Swift or Nikki Reed would also work well!

For Christopher, I still think William Moseley would do well.

Because he can pull off the long blonde hair, then cut it short and still look great.

Or even

this guy:

His name is Lucas Till. He's definitely not my top pick for Christopher, but it's hard to find an incredibly good looking blonde guy with long hair that can cut his hair and still look great. But he can't look outstandingly gorgeous, because otherwise, Whitney wouldn't have overlooked him at first. So it's hard to find the perfect person.

Also, my favorite choice for Gabriel Luna is still Ben Barnes:

I mean, come on. That is the closest I've ever got to picturing someone as a character (although I also picture him as Jesse from the Mediator)

I can sort of picture Camilla Belle as Em:

I can kinda picture Taylor Lautner as Justin Bay

Even though this isn't until Being Nikki, I can definitely picture Chad Michael Murray as Steven

It would be cool, if airhead became a movie.http://creativemovie...s.blogspot.com/ Click on this link!
